Mythology of Heroes

Mythology Of Heroes

Heroes includes a number of mysterious fictional elements that have been ascribed to science fiction or supernatural phenomena. Tim Kring and the creators of the series refer to these fictional elements as part of the mythology of the series. Kring confirmed that although the show does have a unique mythology, he doesn't want to sink too deeply into it. Rather, Kring has used volumes to wrap up ongoing plot lines, rather than carrying them over long periods of time, as in Lost. As far as the overall mythology of the series, Kring said "we have talked about where the show goes up to five seasons."

    Through the mythology of Einstein, the world blissfully regained the image of knowledge reduced to a formula.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I have always been a friend to hero-worship; it is the only rational one, and has always been in use amongst civilized people—the worship of spirits is synonymous with barbarism—it is mere fetish.... There is something philosophic in the worship of the heroes of the human race.
    George Borrow (1803–1881)
